    Is anyone else having a massive infestation of spiders in their apartments in Thomand hall.

    So far this evening I've killed 6 big massive spiders.

    I think they should get pest control in to rid the problem. It's ridiculous at this stage. I can't sit down to watch tv without seeing a big fooker running across the room

    Big spiders seem to be a problem all over, feckers are everywhere.

    Try Olbas Oil it seems to keep them out they hate the smell, esp around your bed :o

    i'm obviously the only one that isn't bothered by these, spiders aren't even a pest, they kill pests. don't leave you windows and doors wide open 24/7 and you'll get less spiders bro.

    The weather's still fairly warm and thomond is next to a river and all those swampy little streams, of course there's insects everywhere. There's not much village management can do other than provide you with a sweeping brush to clear out the webs. Which they do :)

    They come in from outside, so no point in getting pest control. Man up and kill them / open a window and let them out.
